Penelope rose

It is very hot. A day to sew and watch old films, Khartoum and now Chisum. Charlton Heston and Laurence Olivier and then John Wayne. Too hot to go out and feed up for another hour or so. I love the rose named for me, or perhaps because of me, or then again nothing to do with me at all. Never mind I really like it. One of those weeks where not a lot was done, or at least nothing to write about, apart from going shopping for clothes with my oldest daughter, oh to be you young and slim again! I have been reading or rather really reading old books, I had forgotten how good Helen Marines was,this one was Decision at Delphi. Some lovely descriptions in it. Hope for a good week end.

Very pretty rose.
I often return to old books when I am in a certain mood.
Could you send a bit of your hot weather our way as a very cold week end is forecast.
